Professional profile

Horticulture refers to the cultivation and breeding techniques of fruit trees, vegetables, flowers and ornamental trees. In ancient times, the cultivation of fruit trees, vegetables and flowers was often confined to a small garden, which was different from agricultural production in the field, so it was called gardening. Horticulture is correspondingly divided into fruit tree gardening, vegetable gardening and ornamental gardening. Horticulture is an integral part of agricultural planting, which is of great significance to enrich human nutrition, beautify and transform human living environment. Horticultural crops generally refer to small-scale intensive cultivation crops with high economic value. Mainly divided into three categories: fruit trees, vegetables and ornamental plants. Gardening originated in the Stone Age. During the Renaissance, gardening rose again in Italy and spread to all parts of Europe. China Zhouyuan Garden began to appear as an independent management department. Cultivation of greenhouse gardens in past dynasties

, fruit tree propagation and cultivation techniques, cultivation of rare flower varieties and extensive exchanges with other countries in gardening. Since the 20th century, horticultural production has increasingly developed into enterprise management. Modern horticulture has become an important field of comprehensive application of various scientific and technological achievements to promote production. Horticultural products have become a necessity to improve human food nutrition, beautify and purify the living environment.
